about to be homeless

[Sylvia1]

To whom it may concern:
I wanted to get more information on the services or organizations that help with paying rent in Hillsborough County (Riverview) before I am homeless, which is about to happen. I am retired military that still works but have had financial issues arise that has put me in need. I have already contacted the VA for assistance and they were able to help last month, but I am still in need.
I can be reached IA email or cell after 6pm.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I have 3 days to pay $1300.00 or leave, which I will be homeless always where no one to go to. This is my first crisis, I'm praying to have a roof over my heads I'm searching for work day and night. I've always paid on time. Thank you.

Well I'm struggling and may lose our home. Right now and my kids may not see Christmas. My worker from Section 8 told me they only give you One extension. So I said Okay I will wait until November so had my landlord fill out another paper to extend it.
The first time I had to wait for new landlord to run credit for new place. The landlord went back Friday waiting for inspection. At new place I have to pay $950 rent and don't have it.

I am desperate to get help with my rent as I am a single mother of four kids and have two currently in my custody full time with the other two part time. I have been looking for a job for 6 months now to support our family but cannot find work that will pay the rent and utilities and support my family. I am desperate as I am about to be evicted as my second months rent is now due and I do not have the money to pay it. I am currently a month behind, and if I don't get help soon I am going to be on the street with my kids. I have been trying to get a job through the work first program and temp agencies but still have not found anything. Please, help me and my children. I am desperate.

My family and I are 26 days late with our rental payment. We are facing eviction as the court has given us until Monday to pay the balance or they are moving forward with the eviction. My husband and I have three children. The youngest is two. My husband works but still falls short of the rental payments and I am diligently seeking employment with no success or access to affordable childcare. We have already moved within the past seven months to a more affordable community, however we are still struggling. Please help us avoid eviction as my children are already under a lot of stress. Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter.

My family and I are in desperate need of help paying our rent this month. It was due on the first, but given until the 13th and don't know if we will have a place to live next month. My husband is disabled. I was working, but due to medical conditions I was unable to keep my employment. Please if you know of any programs for North Carolina (Harnett County) I would greatly appreciate any help available.

I have a problem. I am in the process of trying to get disability. My only problem is that I am homeless now since I can't work. My fiancée stays at fresh start. He has a job but fresh start takes most of his check so we aren't able to save money or it will take forever to get the apartment we got approved for its six hundred dollars to move in. Rent a month is for hundred all bills paid if you could help I would gladly appreciate it. Please let me know. I don't know what else to do.

I am emailing to request any and all information you can provide for low income families with children in the home currently on aid needing utility (electric &water) also rental/homeless prevention information. I am not exactly sure what personal or other information I should provide so will just provide basic until requested to do more. Family of 4 with 2 children under 18 on aid monthly income of $608.00 who is is in danger of becoming homeless also currently because of very unique situation is going without water. Please let me know if can help on any way with information or otherwise.

I need assistance with this month's rent. I am currently on maternity leave and I am going back to work next week. Unfortunately I am facing an eviction if I cannot pay within the next few days. Please help! I have a newborn baby boy and a two year old and we have no where to go if we get evicted. I can't be homeless with a newborn child. That would be terrible. I live in White Plains NY. I will be back on my feet next month but I just need help this one time. Thank you so very much!

The government has a homeless / rehousing program. So people who are about to be evicted, or who are now homeless, may be able to get financial support from it. The program is listed here.

Mostly they are run by the Salvation Army or community action agency, so those are the best places to call for applications to it.

Can you pay any money to your friend? Would they really kick you out so homeless? Regardless, here is information on some agencies in (use this link) Aurora Illinois that can offer housing assistance, emergency rent help, and other aid. Call organizations like the Lazarus House at (630) 587-2144 or the local Salvation Army agency, and call at 630-377-2769.

You did not post your county, so not much we do do other than provide general advice on rent help. Time and time again we ask people to post their state/county as assistance programs are mostly local. So you are just left with the general link on rental assistance.
